While predictions on who will win the 2017-18 NBA Championship have come from far and wide, we now have our latest prediction straight from a courthouse.

Former rap mogul Marion “Suge” Knight is the most recent, but his came in a bit of a unique way.

Knight was recently in court awaiting his trial date to be set after being accused of intentionally ramming his Ford F-150 into two men on the set of the movie “Straight Outta Compton” in January 2015, according to the Los Angeles Times.

“At this time…” Knight said, before the judge cut him off, saying he wanted a once-and-for-all answer.

“Houston,” Knight responded.

“Alright, Houston. Good pick,” the judge said.

Knight smiled.

It’s hard to argue that this isn’t the most unique prediction on the playoffs that we’ve seen to this point, but apparently, the co-founder of Death Row Records is a fan of what James Harden, Chris Paul and company are doing this season.
